Oh, the thin skin.
Under her pseudonym, The Cuckoo's Calling sold fewer than 500 hardback copies in its first three months. It sold 43 copies in the week before JK Rowling was revealed to be the author, and then it sold 17662 copies the week after.
Siobhán touched a nerve.

There are multiple videos of Kellie-Jay being assaulted. Women have become used to lies, threats of violence and outright denial of reality, but if you imagine anyone feels 'defeated', think again. Your men's rights activists showed the world exactly who they are. #LetWomenSpeak twitter.com/AucklandPride/…

“Let me stop you right there: yes, Norman Osborn has been driven mad by the Goblin Formula. But - for the sake of balance - his strength is remarkably increased, his glider is a technological wonder, and pumpkin bomb manufacturing is the bedrock of the local economy.”

Why aren't the BBC handing Gary Lineker a documentary to discuss why he thinks the government's new immigration policy is cruel.
If he had expressed views that most immigrants would disagree with, would he have been handed a doc instead of being asked to step down?

This feels like an over reaction brought on by a right-wing media frenzy obsessed with undermining the BBC. I note the same cries of impartiality were totally absent when the BBC Chair failed to disclose aspects of his close friendship with the then PM bbc.co.uk/news/uk-649205

This is a million times more shocking and offensive than anything Gary Lineker has ever said, but I can tell you there won’t be any consequences for Bruce, nor will there be several days of people pissing their pants and having silly debate.
